CaF2.<\/p>\n<p>The covalent character of a compound is determined by the difference in electronegativity between the atoms in the compound. The higher the difference in electronegativity, the more covalent the compound.<\/p>\n<p>In CaF2, the electronegativity of calcium is 1.00 and the electronegativity of fluorine is 4.00. The difference in electronegativity is 3.00, which is the highest of the four compounds.
